I am grateful for a new year, with a fresh start! The year 2011 brought a lot of experiences in my life that has made me change the way I look at life, and I have truly grown from my challenges and spiritual experiences that I have had. I'm grateful for all of my trials and happy moments! I want to be able to think of ways to be happy EVERY SINGLE DAY! Life is too short to spend it being sad or down. I'm no blogger, so I hope that my desire to do this everyday will continue. I know that if we stay positive, and look up in life, anything negative will become a positive experience! With that said..........Let's Smile!

SMILE #40 Cars that Go

Having my van makes me smile!  Even with all the problems it's given us in the last 2 years that we've owned it, I smile because I at least have one!  When we found out we were expecting baby #3, I realized it would be very hard to fit 3 car-seats in the back of our little cobalt, but I knew there was not enough money to purchase a van at the time. 


I'm thankful to my parents, who at the same time was looking to purchase a new van for their family.  We decided to take the very inexpensive price that was offered, and purchase their old van!  Yes, it has given us more problems than we may have wanted, (and my parents do feel bad when they hear it has another problem), but it runs, and it's a good van, and has gotten us where we need to be!  And ultimately it gives us plenty of space for our family! 


Does your car make you smile?
